[01:03] <guillaume___> hi
[01:05] <guillaume___> I have set a pptp server on my vps, it works fine except for certain websites which works well only if i enable routing to 10.0.0.0/8 on my client. I'd like not to be obliged to do this on the client side, how does it come it happens to only certain websites ?
[02:19] <sarnold> guillaume___: do you have to use pptp? it's pretty rubbish protocol
[03:57] <sarthor>  HI, I am copying data from SATA1 to SATA2 hard disk, connected both to same PC, it is something around 2 TB of data, says 37 HRs, to make it faster, copying on 7.1MB/sec in the start it was 29MB/sec... HELP please.
[04:13] <cncr04s> can't help you with bad hardware
[07:02] <lordievader> Good morning
[07:03] <OpenTokix> sarthor: What command are you using to copy?
[07:05] <OpenTokix> sarthor: You also should make sure they are on different sata-channels, not only different ports. when I copy large amounts of data I generally use rsync -a --whole-file, to not do checksum on each file.  but cp -R tend to be the fastest.
[07:09] <lordievader> If you copy data with`dd` the block size makes a huge difference too.
[07:30] <OpenTokix> lordievader: yes, but I don't think this is dd. - but then bs=8M or bs=16M is my goto-options.
[12:21] <josNZ> Hi, after configuring my wireless card during the server installer it autostarts at boot and after installing cinnamon the wireless it connected but the network manager applet says wireless unavailable.
[12:22] <josNZ> How can I let the applet control the wireless
[12:22] <OpenTokix> josNZ: Does not sound server-related at all.
[12:24] <josNZ> I figured this channel was for people running ubuntu server
[12:26] <OpenTokix> Very few servers running applets and gui's
[12:34] <Cheez> except oracle ones. because oracle's installer (at least, last i had to deal with it) required a UI
[12:34] <josNZ> So I guess I should join another channel then. Can you help with how the network is connecting at boot? /etc/network/interfaces is blank and I can't find any config files for it
[12:42] <gunix> i installed a server with MAAS and ssh ain't working. what is the password for tty login?
[12:42] <gunix> ubuntu/ubuntu doesn't work
[13:34] <hallyn> cpaelzer: smoser: is it expected that /sys/module/kvm_intel/parameters/nested in a xenial system be N these days?  I thought we always defaulted to it being Y
[13:36] <cpaelzer> hallyn: it should be Y still
[13:36] <cpaelzer> we docuemented that this is for comforts, but not to rely all of your production on it
[13:36] <cpaelzer> but didn't change it
[13:36] <cpaelzer> hallyn: do you still have /etc/modprobe.d/qemu-system-x86.conf?
[13:42] <smoser> hallyn: i have Y in bionic there.
[13:43] <smoser> yeah, and as cpaelzer said
[13:43] <smoser> $ cat /etc/modprobe.d/qemu-system-x86.conf
[13:43] <smoser> options kvm_intel nested=1
[13:43] <smoser> i had forgotton that was how that was turned on.
[13:44] <cpaelzer> there are more complex means to turn on vmx/svm in the guest, but that is how the module is controlled IIRC
[14:31] <hallyn> smoser: cpaelzer: no i have no /etc/modprobe.d/qemu-system-x86.conf.  but shouldn't the qemu-kvm package install that for me?
[14:41] <smoser> $ dpkg -S /etc/modprobe.d/qemu-system-x86.conf
[14:41] <smoser> qemu-system-x86: /etc/modprobe.d/qemu-system-x86.conf
[14:41] <smoser> hallyn: ^
[14:41] <smoser> it did for me
[14:41] <cpaelzer> same for me as smoser
[14:44] <hallyn> but is that a new install?
[14:45] <hallyn> I'm wondering whether newer pkgs dropped it, and you just have it still sitting around after upgrades
[14:45] <hallyn> can you dpkg -L qemu-system-x86 | grep modprobe.d ?
[14:46] <cpaelzer> $ dpkg -L qemu-system-x86 | grep modprobe.d
[14:46] <hallyn> uh. nm.
[14:46] <cpaelzer> /etc/modprobe.d
[14:46] <cpaelzer> /etc/modprobe.d/qemu-system-x86.conf
[14:47] <rbasak> cpaelzer: some advice/pre-review please. https://jira.mongodb.org/browse/SERVER-33395 is the ppc64el mongodb FTBFS. A compiler bug is discussed there but I believe (not completely confirmed yet) that it's unrelated. The general cause is that mongodb upstream have optimised ppc64el using gcc intrinsics, and they've stopped working (presumably newer gcc). Would you be happy for me to drop that ppc64el
[14:47] <hallyn> apparently i did not, or no longer, have the pkg installed after all.  on the host.  my bad :(
[14:47] <rbasak> optimisation completely and have it use the general code instead?
[14:47] <hallyn> let's see if after a reboot it works now.
[14:52] <cpaelzer> rbasak: in a call, just a few minutes
[14:55] <hallyn> allr ight well this is weird.  I still can't run kvm from inside a container
[15:00] <rbasak> cpaelzer: ack. The code is here: https://github.com/mongodb/mongo/blob/master/src/mongo/db/fts/unicode/byte_vector_altivec.h; I can just undef MONGO_HAVE_FAST_BYTE_VECTOR in byte_vector.h and the build succeeds (with all tests passed)
[15:02] <rbasak> cpaelzer: https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/PowerPC-AltiVec_002fVSX-Built-in-Functions.html defines vec_vbpermq but I think it needs ppc assembly knowledge to understand what the parameters mean
[16:21] <coreycb> jamespage: any idea if we still need to carry the aarch64-libvirt-compat.patch in nova for pike+?
[17:18] <jamespage> coreycb: probably not
[17:19] <coreycb> jamespage: would love to drop it if possible. it started failing in the new point release.
